The bonus disc features interviews and footage of the stars, directors, and other creative talents behind the various films. Different creators of the comic books are also on hand to share their thoughts about the growth of Marvel from comics to movies.

Beyond the bonus disc, the package also includes a Marvel short feature, a gag real, and an interactive second-screen experience, according to Target.

Buyers can preorder the film through Target's Web site. Shipping will cost unless you spend at least $75 on the total order.
